in the air. in an apparent effort to disperse angry crowds who had gathered around. this particular mosque is an area in cairo that was supposed to be the final destination for tens of thousands of supporters of the ousted president mohamed morsi and the muslim brotherhood marching against it yesterday. during these marches there are clashes, scores of people were injured, scores of people were hurt. many were taken to this mosque. also racing to this mosque were protesters who wanted to take cover from the gunfire. then came 7:00 p.m. the curfew went in effect. these people, these protesters were effectively trapped inside. armed security forces surrounded the mosque. also surrounding the mosque, unknown gunmen. at some point, state media aired video of these protesters attacked the mosque.

report of leaked documents for using drugs. >> yo has more. hey, joe >> this "60 minutes" report is basically saying alex rodriguez and his close people basically leaked the names of ryan braun even his yankees' teammate francisco cervelli. they leaked it back in january when the investigation started. rodriguez was in the dugout last night before the game in boston and he basically denied the report and said he expects more accusations like this to keep coming out. >> we're all going to are to get ready for a bumpy road. going to get worse every day. i would expect more stories to come out every day. it's frustrating for the game because the game is going so well. the team is playing relatively well. we're excited about playing obviously one of the best teams in baseball in boston.

7:01 am
have been killed in violent clashes. hundreds have been injured rp. armed security forces fired guns in the air as they escorted women from a cairo mosque where they had taken refuge overnight. >> cnn's ian lee is in cairo. ian, what's the latest at that mosque? >> reporter: the situation is still very tense at that mosque. we were hearing that gunfire earlier this morning from our position here. the soldiers trying to take women from the mosque, lead them away. but a mob of people besieged them, chanting the general's name, the head of egypt's military saying that these people are bad people. they're traitors, the women coming out of the mosque. still a very intense scene as people inside of the mosque are afraid to come out. they're afraid for their lives that if they do come out, this mob could attack them or they could be arrested by the military. >> and, ian, i know the muslim brotherhood are asking that the
7:02 am
protests continue on a daily basis. where does it end and could it escalate in all out warfare? >> reporter: well, we won't see the type of warfare as we were seeing in libya or currently in syria. this would be more street battles between the military and the morsi demonstrators. but it really wouldn't spread throughout the country to every street and every square. it is isolated within the cities. but there are very intense, very bloody battles when you have the two sides squared off. over 600 people have died in the last two days between the two battles. we're expecting it to continue as both sides are digging in their heels. both sides unwilling to back down. >> all right, ian lee, thank you very much. now, we want to show you some new amateur video out of egypt. we have to warn you, it's disturbing and it's hard to watch. you see a man unarmed, walking straight into automatic weapons fire. you see him with his arms uplifted. as the guns keep firing and then
7:03 am
he crumples to the ground. we need to add that cnn has thought confirmed the authenticity of this video. >> israel is watching what happens there very closely. it relies on the military for help in securing the border. jim clancy is in israel. what is the biggest concern about the violence? >> reporter: well, you know, israel doesn't have any lot of choices in this. they're not saying anything publicly knowing that could only backfire for this country. but you're right, they do have concerns. the choices as you say were limited. it's not a good or bad situation, bad or worse. israel looks on telling cnn on condition of anonymity that the worst case scenario is currently a case of chaos and anarchy on
7:04 am
streets. this is the fear, because they have a common border as you note there with egypt. a lot of extremist groups there in the last week alone, they fired or attempted to fire missiles at least two times at israel. and so there's concern that the military may have to take its eye off the ball there. and, you know, that could be, you know, a potent problem for the israelis. so they're looking on with some concern. hamas, on the other hand, has been public. it held a demonstrating last night in gaza. it's branding what happened this week in egypt massacres of the muslim brotherhood supporters who have taken to the streets. and it's not surprising, no love lost, between the muslim brotherhood, its offshoot hamas and ally and the egyptian military. you know after mohamed morsi was overthrown, egypt's military moves in and destroyed hundreds of tons leading into gaza from the sanaa.
7:05 am
those carried cash, they carried arms. this undermined the position of hamas. they're seen by the military as an ally. across the arab word, we've got creation. you can see the difference between the groups critical of the islam brotherhood, that support the military. those that are labeling the z n demonstrations and what happened in cairo was massacre. saudi arabia, the images of the burning building in cairo. and the wealthy gulf arab states have pumped $12 billion, offered up that aid package to the military government. and they criticize what they said were muslim brotherhood efforts to undermine the economy of egypt. so very are different views. you know, turkey coming down calling for a u.n. investigation. some of the gulf states like saudi arabia clearly supportive
7:06 am
of the military authorities in cairo. very differing opinions across the region today. back to you. >> jim clancy in jerusalem. thank you for that insight. senators john mccain and lindsey graham is saying what's happening to civilians in egypt is as a massacre. >> they say it's still considerable. they add, quote, whether it is egypt, syria, iraq or the wider region, the failure of the obama administration to use influence to shape events that this critical part of the world has only diminished our credibility, limited our influence and constrained our policy options. the events now unfolding in egypt and the middle east will directly impact the national security interests of the united states and we cannot remain this engaged. president obama has condemned that aid, but the u.s. aid continues to trickle in. dan loathian is in martha's vineyard where the president is on vacation.
7:07 am
dan, why did the president decide to step up that between egypt and the u.s.? >> well, there had been impact for the obama administration to do much more. there and of course, was that delay of f-16s to the egyptian air force. but what the obama administration is not seeing is this quick transition to the elected government in egypt. so they really wanted to send a strong message to the egyptians to put pressure on them. they began, according to a senior administration official, talking about pulling out of this biannual meetings known as bright star, about the time in june when they decided to cancel the f-16 jets but when the violence really began escalating that's when the president
7:08 am
decided late wednesday night that in fact they would pull out of the those joint exercises. do they believe that will have direct impact on the ground, even a state department official saying there are limitations to this move but they do believe it will send a strong message to the current government there in egypt. >> so, dan, the other leverage that administration has over egypt is this more than $1 billion in aid. the administration is not calling what happened a coup, because that would obviously trigger a pulling out of that aid. but how are they going to use this as leverage? what happens to the aid? >> and you're right, brianna, that's the key thing. it really is sort of the biggest stick if you will, leverage, that the u.s. has in trying to push the current government there along to this transition. the administration does not want to label what happened in egypt a coup because they have said
7:09 am
they don't believe it is in the best interest of the united states to do so. so they're still holding on to this $1.3 billion in military aid, hoping that they can still use that to sort of influence what is happening there in egypt. the president did not specifically talk about that during his remarks when he interrupted his vacation here on martha's vineyard this week but he certainly hinted that is it something that could happen next. take a listen. >> going forward, i've asked my national security team to assess the actions taken by the interim government. and further steps that we may take as necessary with respect to the u.s./egyptian relationship. >> so even though the president has been here on vacation, he has been getting rel updates from his national security team. the white house has released some photos of the president on the phone with his team. in fact, one of the photos came just right before the president came out and addressed the nation about the steps that the u.s. would be taking and

7:58 am
down and finds out there is a reason the man is there. he is blind. >> excuse me, sir. there is a sidewalk just three or four feet over to your left side. >> can you walk me over there? >> of course, give me one moment to park my bike. >> that's a simple act of kindness. a minute out of the rider's day, and he could have saved a life. >> is that great. now today's must see moment. >> kitty cat stand up, two felines staring each other down like nobody else is in the room. >> which one will dare to blink? how will it end? that part is easy, just about the way you would expect. >> slap!

>> because i speak panda, i didn't know if you knew this about me, but this is panda for, "hi, mom, i love you," and this giant panda cub, this is the first to be born in taiwan, just meeting her mother for the first time since her birth, and it's what you would expect, h"hey, mom, what is up?" >> i think the question is "why is my baby outside of the fence?" so cute. the next of your "new day" starts right now. get ready for the rain. rounds and rounds of it rolling into the already soggy south
8:00 am
this morning. fears of flooding now very real. >> chris christi makes a big decision on medical marijuana. did the suffering of one little girl sway the new jersey governor. it's back to school and hopefully back to normal in moore, oklahoma, three months after the deadly f-5 tornado, but safety is still very much a concern. >> do you think you are paying too much for your power bill? chances are you are right. wait until you hear about the controversial billing practice that is now becoming the norm. >> hi, everybody. good morning to you. i am brianna keilar. >> i am martin savidge. >> chris christi signaled he will make it easier for children
8:01 am
to use medical marijuana but only after sharp restrictions. >> that is after a father of a girl with epilepsy pleads with christie. >> i know you think it's simple -- >> i know you think it's simple, and it's not. >> please don't let my daughter die, governor. >> christi's response is not simple for parents of children that need medical marijuana. >> where does the issue stand? >> here is how we understand it. governor christie has sent this bill back to the state legislator, and he is saying he will sign it if edible forms of the form will be given only to minors, and in this case that would help this little girl.
8:02 am
he actually wants to keep in place the more strict requirement, current law that parents have a note from a pediatrician, a psychiatrist and the prescription from a qualifying doctor, and the bill as it stands now would eliminate the number of marijuana strains available in new jersey, and christie is okay with keeping that portion in the bill, meaning in essence that she could get the medical marijuana that she needs. last night that father, scott wilson, gave his reaction to our wolf blitzer, take a look. >> overall it's a victory for us but not a victory for all the patients of the new jersey. the lifting of the three strain limits was a huge victory for us and anybody in the state, and the edibles was really confounding decision, and we were not expecting that, and they are only allowing expanded
8:03 am
edibles for children or for minors. >> for those of you who are not familiar with the story or just getting up to speed. 2-year-old vivian, she has seizures and they could last up to an hour, and she is on a special diet and has special medications, and her parents think the only thing that controls the seizures is a medical form of marijuana, and cdc is known to help people with this syndrome. vivian is so young that of course she would not be able to leave the dry leaf form and smoke the marijuana, she is just two years old. and her parents say lozenges are not a option because she could
8:04 am
choke and there is sugar in those lozenges, and that's not an option for something with this syndrome, and this is a victory for vivian, because it appears if the legislature goes along with what christie wants, she could get the form, and it's an oil and it would be dropped on food or on to her tongue and this is something that her parents believe would control those severe seizures. >> there is a lot to it. thank you. and now to egypt. parts of the capital, cairo, looking and sounding more like a war zone. shots are ranging out today as security forces escorted women from a mosque where they took refuge overnight. 173 people were killed in

8:06 am
ahead. >> more rain on the way for parts of the southeast, and that includes panama city. for areas especially along the florida panhandle, the rain is going to be coming down and they don't need it because a lot of the area already saturated. look at the totals over the last 48 hours, 4 to 6 inches, and some parts that you are seeing in red, it will lead to problems with flooding, and we have flood watches and warnings out there, and some of the locations are anticipating up to 6 inches of rainfall, and that means areas around tallahassee, and for new orleans we are talking heavy rainfall. now to the tropics, we follow an area, and it's hard to pick out, but this is the circulation we are watching. here is the convection and thunderstorm, a 40% chance to tropical cyclone. out in idaho, they are dealing with fires there, we want to
8:07 am
point out wind gusts up to 30 miles per hour, and the situation is still going to be dangerous, but it's not all bad out there. we head back over to the northeast. brianna, last week you were here, and it was nice, and look at these temperatures -- >> yeah, this is my luck. >> you can't spend that time outside, but the temperatures are going to be nice in the 70s and 80s, still running below after for this time of year. >> i am sorry for bringing the bad weather with me. jennifer delgado in the weather center. thanks. it has been three months almost since the monster tornado tore through moore, oklahoma. it triggered emotional reunions for young survivors and their parents. >> my heart just breaks. students across the area return to their classrooms, and many
8:08 am
were anxious about how school might be different after the tornado, and our nick valencia was there. >> reporter: there a lot of emotions when it's time to go back to school, especially when part of that school is not there anymore. >> you look there. that is destroyed. i don't know how we survived this. >> reporter: i met dillon months ago, and we followed the tornado that wrecked moore, oklahoma. the word hero got thrown around a lot those days, and ellis was nothing short of one. >> i see her going up and jump on her, and i grab on to the bottom of the lockers that were in the ground, and then once it's over i push her out of the way, and all of the debris starts to hit me. >> reporter: how did you think so fast? how did you think of doing what you did? >> just didn't think, did it.
8:09 am
>> reporter: ellis had a lot of time to think about what happened. excited. nervous. anxious. those are some of the feelings he said he has had about starting eighth grade, and after everything that happened he said he is just ready for things to be back to normal again. >> it is going to be a process to get back, but it's going to eventually get the way it was before. >> reporter: first grade teacher wishes it was that easy, and her school took a direct hit for the tornado, and she laid on her student and played music as the debris rained down on them. >> they don't want to go to school, the ones i had last year, and they saw me this summer and they said i don't want to go to school, and that breaks my heart because they kind of lost their innocence. >> reporter: she says the most difficult part for her will be making them feel like they are safe. >> a thunderstorm might scare
8:10 am
me, but there is so much love in the world and that's what we are going to teach the children, too, and that's the strength we have to draw on. >> nick valencia joining us in the news room. this is a small community and anybody living there knows somebody injured or who died. >> this is the community, a lot of people know each other and have been through this type of thing before, and it's support from the world, support from strangers, or sending coloring books to the kids, and that's what is good is support from people they don't know. >> sometimes reporters will say how do you keep covering bad news, and i say there is always a silver lining, and you found one here. thank you. >> we will talk more with nick at 10:00 a.m. as well. still, hannah anderson's
8:11 am
first public appearance since being taken. and then "the butler," and why she thinks race was a factor in the trayvon martin case. >> a lot of people if they think they are not using the "n" words themselves, and do not have harbor ill will towards black people that it's not racist, but to me it's ridiculous to look at that case and not to think that race was involved. >> her sit-down interview with cnn. that's straight ahead. you are watching "new day." the recent increase in cafeteria prices is not cool. when you vote for flo, we'll have discounts.

dimaggio's home. >> she hurried past more than a dozen cameras without speaking to reporters, and once inside people that were there said she was much more comfortable at home with her peers and neighbors, and what she wanted to do was thank all of the people that had been supportive of her during her ordeal and afterwards. her arrival at a fund-raiser came as surprise to her relatives and friends. >> this night was an unexpected reunion, honestly. all of her friends were here, and it was like we have not skipped a beat. >> the media were invited to the restaurant in lake side, california, but were not allowed inside during her reunion. >> she is loved and doing good day by day and we will keep moving forward from here. >> wearing hannah strong and "pray for hannah" t-shirts, they helped raise money for hannah's

8:23 am
supporters. the egyptian government says 173 people killed and more than 1300 wounded. and the chaos spreads across egypt. there are growing calls for the u.s. to suspend the $1.5 billion in aid to egypt's military. let's go to jill doherty for more on that. >> americans have a big investment in egypt's security whether they know it or not. the egyptian military's bloody battle against demonstrators is feeling pressure in the u.s. to suspend military assistance. senator john mccain says the u.s. cannot be complicit in the mass slaughter of citizens. president obama won't go that far yet or pull the plug in
8:24 am
military assistance of u.s. gives egypt every year, and that includes hardware, like ma-a1 tan tanks, and servicing and technical support as well as military training, and cutting aid could end up cutting money to american defense contractors, and the u.s. doesn't hand over cash, it puts it in a trust fund, and the money gets paid to those contractors who provide jobs for americans. like the tank manufacturer in ohio, and the f-16 manufacturer in ft. worth, texas, and israel is nervous, and officials telling cnn that cutting military aid to egypt could hurt israel and the region, and egypt is one of two countries that made peace with israel in 1978,
8:25 am
and they see the egyptian military as the only stable force from keeping the country from chaos. >> another possible effective cutting military aid, weakening security for the canal, a crucial sea route for the oil supply, and egypt controls the canal and the troops guard it, and this is a battle between u.s. strategic interests and moral values, and so far for president obama, strategic interests are winning. >> thank you. coming up, oprah winfrey sits down with anderson cooper and opens up about her new role in "the butter" alebutler," and

surcharges, the industry is on track to make more money, anything from resort fees to early check out fees, and internet and telephone charges and if you want to send a tax or use the mini bar, there is a fee for that, and if you want them to hold your bags before you leave, that will cost you, too. >> feeling like the airport all of a sudden. turns out you might be paying an estimated bill versus to what you actually used. and thank you for being with us. give us a sense of how widespread this problem is, and why this method is now being used? >> it's pretty common, and it's being used as a combination of things. the utilities are trying to save money by having fewer meter readers, and then also the fact that there are fewer people home

8:43 am
you can go to the website for the utility. one of the things you can do is go online and set up an account and then you can actually read the meter and enter what the reading is, so they will have the accurate reading. and a lot of them have the option of having a call-in number, and you end up calling in within a certain time around your meter reading and you read them the meter and give them the reading, and a few utilities will also include post cards with your bill, so if you want to, you can fill out the postcard, mail it in, and that way they get the actual reading. >> if you want to pay what you should be paying or less, you have to do a little footwork it sounds like. thank you. >> you are very welcome. parents who use monitors to watch their kids, are they safe? because this story got a lot of attention. a baby monitor was hacked.

9:00 am
night long. >> let's bring in fred from cairo. we know it's a confusing situation there, and what can you tell us about what is happening? how many people are still ins e inside? do we know? >> reporter: it has been fluid and kaoeu yac chaotic. and the information we got, and i have been covering this throughout the entire night, at some point there was 1,000 people holed up in the mosque, and inside you have morsi supporters, and outside you have the armed vigil anti-tkpraogroa. some of the morsi supporters, especially women have come out, and the security forces have protected them and firing in the air to keep the vigilante groups
9:01 am
away from them, and you have the exchanges of gunfire as you said, and it seems as though there is a shooter from the crowd inside the mosque, and the security forces returned fire as they said they would, and there was an issue if the security forces were attacked, they would return live fire. we could hear it ringing out throughout the morning in cairo, and there is a military helicopter circling over the area as well. this place was the place where the big slashes helped yesterday, and a lot of people were killed and a lot of people inside the mosque shot refuge there, and it was being used as a makeshift hospital and morgue throughout the night for the people killed in the clashes, martin. >> thank you for that. we will take a change and turn to weather. you will be looking at a live
9:02 am
shot from panama city, florida, and storms are expected throughout the day. let's bring in our meteorologist, jennifer delgado. >> there is a big threat for that, because the rain has been coming down over the last 48 hours, and once again in the southeast. look at the radar, lighting up parts of florida and alabama and georgia. and we will see the heaviest rainfall today, and look what has been coming down over the last 48 hours, some locations between 4 and 6 inches of rainfall, and you can see the area to the west of panama city, with all the rain around we have flood watches and warnings in place, and we are expecting some of the locations to pick up six more inches of rainfall, and it will work into louisiana and new orleans and regions like birmingham. as we go through today and tomorrow, we will continue to follow the heavy rainfall but we are following the tropics, and you can see the thunderstorms,
9:03 am
and this system has a 40% chance of developing into a tropical cyclone, and we will continue to follow that and of course we are tracking the fire danger out in the west across parts of idaho, and we are expecting some of the winds to gust up to 30 miles per hour, and that means the fire danger is not going to be over today, and it's not all bad news out there, though, and we leave the good for the end, and we will see the temperatures across the northeast below average, and it is going to be cooler on sunday as well, martin. >> jennifer, thank you very much for that. new jersey governor chris christie is signaling he is going to make it easier for sick kids to get medical marijuana. >> the move comes after the father of a young girl with a rare form of epilepsy confronted christie. >> these are complicated issues,
9:04 am
and -- i know you think it's simple, and it's not. >> please don't let my daughter die, governor. >> alina has been following this. where does the issue stand now? >> basically, governor christie sent it back to the legislature and he said he will sign it if edible forms of marijuana would be given only to minors, not to patients fr all ages, and that would help vivian here, and he wants to keep in place the requirement that in order to qualify for the program, parents would have to get a note from a pediatrician, a psychiatrist and a qualifying doctor, and some parents believe that is too strict. in fact, here is what vivian's father told wolf blitzer last night. >> it makes a lot of headache and heartache for parents to shop around for doctors that understand anything about medical marijuana to get them to
9:05 am
sign up for this, so for parents who are already going through a lot of trouble with what their children's ailments are, you don't have to do that for any other medication. >> and christie supports eliminating the number of strains, and that means vivian in essence would be able to get the medical marijuana she needs. for those of you getting up to speed on this story, the 2-year-old has a rare form of epilepsy, and she is a on special diet and has special meds, and her parents believe the only thing that will help to control it is a special form of medical marijuana, which is high is something called cdd, and low in the agent that gets you high. this is a victory for this family. if the state legislature goes
9:06 am
along with governor christie's suggestions, vivian should be able to get what she needs. it's an oil that would be dropped into her food or on her tongue, and her parents believe and our own sanjay gupta believes after doing research that this would help vivian and other children like her. >> this type of syndrome that she has, we are talking about seizures that are last a minute, and the sensation the parents must feel as they are watching their daughter. thank you so much. for more on medical marijuana, and why dr. sanjay gupta changed his mind, you can watch a special here tonight on cnn. coming up, searching for alexis. she was last seen at a gas station, however, there is more

9:13 am
there is just all kinds of holes in his story. why would a 48-year-old man need to ask a 17-year-old where to buy weed? if you smoke weed you know where to buy it. >> i think this man holds the key obviously, and as a mother that could speak, if you could and indirectly you are to him, what would you say to him or his attorney? >> would would want to know where my daughter at. from a mother to a father, i would like to just sit there with him one-on-one and ask him where my daughter is at, because he do nowhe where she is at. it just don't make sense at all. i would want him to see the hurt in my eyes. >> this is a small town, trina,
9:14 am
and you met him before? >> i purchased a car from the dealership he used to work at. i knew i had seen him just around in the community, because the vehicle is kind of hard to miss. it was not with any frequency, but i had seen him before. and then when i figured out that's where he used to work, he was actually the person who cleaned my car up before i took possession of it. >> laura, i know you have said -- >> which is really eerie. >> you still have hope in your heart, any parent wood, and you must still have hope, right? >> yes, i still have hope. i mean, a mother would know if something -- if her daughter is really gone, but i still have hope. i don't feel that and i donwant back and i miss her. >> if you know anything about the disappearance, investigators
